One step closer to the Green New Deal with desiccant dehumidification technology, Humaster
Green New Deal(Green New Deal) is a sustainable economic system based on the consumption of resources and the environment that enables the environment and people to coexist. It contains the meaning of transforming into a possible new economic system. Responding to climate change while advancing industries, We intend to implement policies to stimulate the economy and promote employment by investing in eco-friendly technologies such as energy conversion. is to.
This is a key challenge, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Animal habitats have decreased due to human indiscriminate environmental destruction, Since then, as a result of contact with humans by animals carrying the virus, corona19As it has been pointed out that it led to a deadly virus, interest in human life coexisting with the environment is growing worldwide..
Humaster is a desiccant(desiccant) dehumidifying in a society where the Green New Deal is emphasized. Technology-based humidity control-based air conditioner 'Humicon' is drawing attention< span>. Global warming increases the demand for cooling, As a result, the use of air conditioners and carbon emissions also increase, Global warming falls into a vicious cycle that accelerates further, Humi-Con reduces excessive power consumption, which was considered a problem with air conditioners, while managing indoor humidity to provide a comfortable daily life. It is proving the excellence of technology by receiving various certifications with the feature that it is possible to live. We met Daeyoung Lee, CEO of Humaster, to hear more details.

Please introduce your company.
Humaster was established as a start-up company by the Korea Institute of Science and Technology in 2018. Technology was recognized for the development of desiccant cooling technology for unit households that can supply cooling by connecting district heating hot water, Since then, instead of district heating hot water The current Humaster was established by developing technology using waste heat from air conditioners.
Our flagship product, 'Humicon', is a product that contains such technology., After its release, it received a lot of attention in various fields. 2018this year 10Selection of major mechanical technologies, 2020 No. 8 has received various awards, including the grand prize in the technology innovation sector at the Future Creative Management Excellence Award, and , government related to new technologies and new products 4Leaved a successful track record of acquiring all major certifications. In 2022, it was selected as an excellent government procurement product by the Ministry of Small and Medium Business Ventures, Public Procurement Service, We are achieving steady growth with technology and business feasibility recognized.
Introducing the main business in detail
HumiCon, which combines desiccant dehumidification with house ventilation, has been commercialized(HumiCon). Desicant dehumidification uses a desiccant, that is,, to remove moisture from the air and absorb the dehumidifying material, The most important point is that heat is used to regenerate the dehumidifying material by blowing away the absorbed moisture.This is a great feature.
What makes this possible is the self-developed desiccant material HuSheet(HuSheet). This material has dehumidification performance up to 5 times that of silica gel, 40-50 also has the feature that it can be reproduced at a temperature of about . Also, Manufactured because it is a polymer material, Processing , Easy to mold, Ozone absorption, deodorization and antibacterial, Its anti-fungal performance can also be said to be at the highest level.
The Humi-con thus created was compared to the energy efficiency 1 level electric dehumidifier in the official performance test conducted by the Korea Conformity Laboratories It recorded a dehumidification efficiency of 140%, Efficient humidity throughout the four seasons, from reducing wasted cooling and heating energy during ventilation in summer to preventing moisture leakage in winter. Can be managed.
Especially, Corona19 As it is known that the virus is greatly affected by humidity, the importance of ventilation is being emphasized, Even when ventilation is carried out in this way, humidity can be maintained through the humi-con, which has the advantage of being usable in various spaces.
If you have a future direction and goal
Humaster's ultimate goal is to contribute to a society where people and the environment coexist through its unique technology. In the future, we will find the best alternative technology to solve the energy consumption problem not only in the building sector but also in the industrial sector., , We want to grow into the world's best moisture conditioning company leading the future of air conditioning technology... span>
